Project description:JRS4 is our wild-type M6 serotype GAS and JRS519 is our Mga- M6 serotype GAS. SF370 is our wild-type M1 serotype GAS and KSM165L is our Mga- M1 serotype GAS. Table 1: Genomic Normalization Description: Step by Step instructions for the removal of outlier background data and any ORF data that did not meet threshold of 2SD above background average, using original data from gpr file provided in each of the sample files. Table 2: M1 Mga+ vs Mga- Description: Step by Step instructions for the removal of outlier data as compared across all possible data points for each ORF. Data points after genomic normalization are used with resultant averages and standard deviations for each ORF computed. Table 3: M6 Mga+ vs Mga- Description: Step by Step instructions for the removal of outlier data as compared across all possible data points for each ORF. Data points after genomic normalization are used with resultant averages and standard deviations for each ORF computed. Keywords: repeat sample
Project description:This transcriptional analysis is a follow up to a population genomic investigation of 3615 Streptococcus pyogenes serotype M1 strains whch are responsible for an epidemic of human invasive infections (www.pnas.org/cgi/doi/10.1073/pnas.1403138111), The goal was to assess gene expression differences between predecessor pre-epidemic M1 strains and their descendent epidemic M1 strains to gain insights into the underlying genetic basis for the shift in the frequency and severity of human infections caused by these pathogenic bacteria
